Shipwreck Museum

About The Shipwreck Museum

Learn the sombre yet the romantic history of the 150 ships that met their doom along the rocky outlets on the coast of Cape Agulhas. Discover stories ranging from that which tells of the inception of the “women and children first” protocol to fables of stowaways discovered playing the piano on wrecked ships. A walk through South Africa’s only shipwreck museum will tease your wildest dreams and take you to a time that seems unreal. You will feel as if you have embarked on an adventure yourself once you emerge from this museum. It is definitely a highlight of Bredasdorp.
